Multiple crashes have been reported across Scotland on Tuesday as heavy rainfall continues.
With “extreme levels” of rain continuing to fall in western parts of the country, speed restrictions have been imposed on train lines and surface water and flood warnings issued to drivers.

It was later cleared at around 7.55am.

It comes after multiple crashes on Monday amid heavy rain.

Insight Philip Petrie STV weather presenter
On Tuesday morning our next frontal system will move in from the south west bringing with it further cloud and persistent rain around Ayrshire, Renfrewshire and Argyll and Bute so a wet morning to come for the south and west.
It will be a breezy day to come too, as our weather is still being dominated by an area of Low Pressure, with tightly packed isobars around it, and with those tightly packed isobars come strong winds.
Things are staying unsettled and changeable for the rest of the week as Low Pressure stays close to the country – it’s safe to say Autumn has definitely arrived and we need to start thinking about packing away our summer wardrobes.
